When my husband and I sat down to plan our wedding, we were totally overwhelmed and frustrated by the entire process. I reached out to a few caterers, and many seemed to get annoyed with us for not knowing exactly what we wanted straight out o...f the gate. When I called Helen, she asked if we'd like to meet at a coffee shop to discuss options. She was so sweet, accommodating, and patient with us and all of our questions that we immediately decided we loved her and set up a tasting.
When we went to the store for the tasting, all of our party (husband, me, and both of our moms) were absolutely blown away by the INCREDIBLE food-- everything was so delicious, we had a really hard time narrowing it down to a few choices! Both of our families are passionate foodies, but extremely different-- his is very meat and potatoes, mine is a lot of vegetarians, and both sides have egg and nut allergies (woof!). Helen and her staff contended with all of that to plan a phenomenal meal that left every single person satisfied. We chose to work buffet style and it really helped us ensure that everyone was happy.
During the day-of the wedding, everything food-wise went off without a hitch! Helen and her staff were SO sweet and accommodating-- I honestly can't say enough nice things about them. They were there for our every need, and took wonderful care of our guests (even the most high maintenance ones!) with incredible grace. Our wedding was 6 months ago and my family STILL is talking about how awesome the servers were and how much we loved the food and Helen!
Helen also suggested a bartending team to come for the wedding and we absolutely ADORED them. They helped us figure out what booze to order, how much to order, and rocked out the service that night.
Bottom line: if you are a foodie, eat should be your #1 choice for catering-- their food is downright phenomenal. (I'm still trying to replicate some of their recipes!) But, perhaps more importantly, if you are feeling unsure of what to do and overwhelmed by the entire process (been there!), then you should give Helen a call. She is like a zen master of all things wedding and totally puts things in perspective. I truly can't say enough nice things, because our experience was THAT great. Cheers, Helen! You rock!!!!
